"Rather than boycotting, simply explain the facts to them, make this a teachable moment."

You can't make a "teachable moment" out of anything with a person who thinks that Obama is a crypto-Muslim Socialist who was born in Kenya despite ample evidence to the contrary.

You can't have a rational conversation with someone who thinks that Obama's speech to school children is an underhanded attempt at political indoctrination.

You can't have a cogent argument with anyone who takes anything that Glenn Beck says seriously.

"That simply guarantees that their world view is completely dominated by conservatives."

It already is, and will be whether or not there are sane people speaking the truth in their social circle.

"Stupidity."

You know what would really be stupid? Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Letting Republicans run roughshod over the truth and what is right AGAIN because people like you are unwilling to make some sacrifices is pretty goddamend stupid if you ask me.

"As a family member you have more influence than talk radio or Faux news."

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :rofl:

Jesus Christ... If you think that you have more influence than the rightist media over your Republican family members, then you are truly deluded. Go try to convince them that they are being lied to and that Obama isn't what they've heard about on Faux. Then get back to me.
